The effectiveness of intensive post-remission chemotherapy regimens for adult patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is limited by both a high rate of disease recurrence and a substantial incidence of treatment toxicity. To evaluate a potentially more effective and less toxic approach, we

This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of a new regimen consisting of Topotecan, Ifosfamide, Etoposide, and L-asparaginase (TIEL) in treating aggressive T-cell lymphoma. Twenty-four patients were included in the research, eighteen males and six females. Half of the patients were in stages III

Acute pancreatitis and diabetic ketoacidosis are unusual adverse events following chemotherapy based on L-asparaginase and prednisone as support treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. We present the case of a 16-year-old Hispanic male patient, in remission induction therapy for acute

Clinical effects of sequential administration of high-dose cytosine arabinoside with L-asparaginase were studied in 5 cases of refractory acute leukemia and 2 cases of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. A total 12 courses were carried out on these 7 patients and complete remission was obtained in 2 courses and

A 41-year-old male was diagnosed as acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) in November, 1982 and partial remission was obtained by a combination chemotherapy of LVP, DVP ABOP and VAMP. In January, 1983, peripheral blood showed an increasing number of leukemic cells and he was readmitted to our hospital.

A polyethylene glycol conjugate of L-asparaginase (PEGLA) was administered to 21 patients with refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The dose given was 2,000 mu/m2 intramuscularly every 2 weeks. Eligibility required at least one prior trial of chemotherapy and ambulatory performance status. At entry,

L-asparaginase is widely used in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in children and adults. Use of L-aspa E. Coli as well as Erwinase is not possible in all cases because of the side effects, mainly allergic reactions and disfunction of pancreas. Recently, the new form of the enzyme

Phase II clinical trials of L-asparaginase of leunase manufactured by "Kyowa" (Japan) was performed in cooperation by 5 institutions of the USSR on 49 patients with various forms of hemoblastosis, including 15 patients aged 1 to 15 and 34 patients aged 16 to 75. The drug was used in a daily dose of

Cyclic administration of methotrexate (MTX) and L-Asparaginase (L-Asp) was utilized either as induction and maintenance chemotherapy or as maintenance chemotherapy alone following induction with other medications in treating 36 children with multiple relapses of acute leukemia. A complete remission

The purpose of the study was to identify the association between chemotherapy-induced nausea/vomiting and changes to the electrogastrogram (EGG) of two children suffering from leukemia. After receiving written consent/assent, the children, both with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), were

The polyethylene glycol (PEG) adduct of Escherichia coli L-asparaginase was administered intravenously to 4 patients with chemotherapy refractory cancers. The PEG-enzyme in plasma exhibited a half-life of 16-25 days. Doses of 250IU/m2 or greater reduced plasma asparagine to undetectable levels for

L-Asparaginase has significantly improved outcome for children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and has become an essential component of multiagent chemotherapy. However, there are many adverse events due to L-asparaginase, including acute pancreatitis. The pathology of L-asparaginase-associated

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the in vitro activity of polyethylene glycol-conjugated L-asparaginase (PEG-Lasparaginase) against fresh human tumor specimens, using the human tumor clonogenic assay (HTCA), and to perform a phase I dose-escalation clinical trial of PEG-L-asparaginase. The goal of the clinical

BACKGROUND L-asparaginase (L-asp) is used as part of the initial treatment in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), inducing remission in 83% to 95% of the treated patients. Major toxicity effects reported are hypersensitivity reactions and dysfunctions of the liver and pancreas. Acute

77 unselected adult patients with acute myeloblastic leukaemia (AML), including practically all AML patients from an area with 1.9 million inhabitants, were randomized for either (1) 5 days pretreatment with 1-asparaginase and prednisolone followed by a combination of rubidomycin and cytosine
